Given numbers are 740,246,432,408,202

The least common multiple of numbers can be find using the prime factorization method or LCM formula.

The LCM of 740,246,432,408,202 is 5626128240.

Find LCM of 740,246,432,408,202 with Prime Factorization

Multiply the prime numbers at the bottom and the left side.

2 x 2 x 2 x 3 x 185 x 41 x 18 x 17 x 101 = 5626128240

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 740,246,432,408,202 is 5626128240.

LCM formula is LCM(a1, a2, an) = (a1 x a2 x an)/{GCF(a1 x a2 x an) x common factors}

Firstly, we have to find the product of all the numbers.

740 x 246 x 432 x 408 x 202 = 6481299732480

Then, let us find the GCF of these five numbers. To do so, we have to list down the factors for each number and choose the highest factor that is in all of the lists.

740 : 1, 2, 4, 5, 10, 20, 37, 74, 148, 185, 370, 740

246 : 1, 2, 3, 6, 41, 82, 123, 246

432 : 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 9, 12, 16, 18, 24, 27, 36, 48, 54, 72, 108, 144, 216, 432

408 : 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 17, 24, 34, 51, 68, 102, 136, 204, 408

202 : 1, 2, 101, 202

2 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 740,246,432,408,202, is 2.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

740:2x 2x 5x 37

246:2x 3x 41

432:2x 2x 2x 2x 3x 3x 3

408:2x 2x 2x 3x 17

202:2x 101

From this, we can see that the common factors because they appear for more than two numbers. So, just multiply them all together.

2x 2x 2x 2x 2x 2x 3x 3 = 576

Therefore, the value for common factors is 576.

Now that we have all the elements of the formula, we can plug them in to calculate the LCM.

LCM(a1, a2, an) = (a1 x a2 x an)/{GCF(a1 x a2 x an) x common factors}

LCM = 6481299732480/(2x576)

LCM = 6481299732480/1152

LCM = 5626128240

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 740,246,432,408,202 is 5626128240.
